GO! Les Coquettes

by The Madame

In case you haven’t heard me rave about about Toronto’s best Cabaret act, here’s me at it again.

If you haven’t seen a Coquettes show, you’re truly missing out. So click on over to their site and purchase your tickets already.

this Tuesday night, you needn’t be lonely

by The Madame

We welcome back art to Tuesday night with yet another artist v artist brawl at AB7. For those not in the know, Art Battle pits artists against each other in 20-minute bouts of live painting. Winners’ work to be auctioned off, losers’ to be ceremoniously destroyed.

TKS was fortunate to join forces with these brawlers for AB6, so we know it’s a good time; it’s a fun way to spend an evening with art, booze, and beats. Come say hi to the Madame as she plays assistant to the cool AB peeps. Save five bucks by sticking your name in the hat, and cross your fingers you’ll be chosen for the paint-slingin’ fray.

Where else but at The Great Hall, 1087 Queen West at Dovercourt.

So there’s no TKS this summer. Don’t let that get in the way of finding dirty things to look at. Go say hi to our very own Skellington {aka PrettyPoopie} at her first solo art show, Casual Encounters.

From the invite:

Adult ads, pornography, Craigslist personals: we have many methods of seeking intimate moments and finding others to share them with. This show is about sex and the different ways we connect with one another in order to fulfill the natural desires that make us human.

Special Reception this Thursday night from 7 to 9 pm at Come As You Are. Debaucherous art surrounded by sex toys. What more could you want?
